Even last night..I know its the ASG but c'mon son you're gonna shoot threes all night?

No..he doesn't. And what exactly is so "awesome" about that lol. The guy looks like he's got a stick up his ass or something. Enjoy the moment guy. Its not the NBA Finals.

IMO he was being constructive. I'm sure Kobe likes and respects LeBron, all these guys are friends so they wanna see one another succeed, especially someone as talented as LBJ who's the face of the league right now.

Lol as someone who's watched Wade for the past 8 1/2 seasons, no he hasn't changed at all. He's had the same attitude from day one.

Possibly. I've just seen the topic thrown out there so I figured it could be worth mentioning. He just sounds nervous whenever he's interviewed or has to speak publicly.

If anyone deserves to get heat its Dwight. How the [expletive] are you gonna be a C and just shoot threes in the All Star game in your city? Dude was a ghost out there and got slammed on like 6 times.

D-Will balled though he deserved to be out there late in the game. I'm sure Thibs and Rose were on the same page though about minutes.

That last play was a drawn up play for D-Will and then the other one was drawn up to Wade for some reason. Criticizing LeBron for last night is absurd lol the guy is the only reason it even got competitive at the end. He was hitting shots from everywhere like it was nothing. His unselfishness has become a flaw at times but I refuse to get on the guy for something in an ASG. His getting pissed about it shows how he's matured in the past couple years. He probably wouldn't have cared about that TO at all 3 or 4 years ago.

Lol I've hated Dirk since before we lost but yeah last year made it even worse. The way Blake carries himself on the court just kills me for such a talented player.

Really though I've seen it brought up before in different places. Some people think he really may have some form of social anxiety. Just listening to his interviews they're all just really awkward and he seems uncomfortable in all of them. Obviously he's still a great player but its something to wonder I guess.

He's up there for me as well.

How can you hate World Peace? Dude is the funniest thing in the NBA to watch out there.

Lol, don't you dare enjoy the all star game dammit! In all seriousness though, I've never seen a superstar be more of an introvert in my time watching basketball. Even MJ smiled more than this guy.

Dirk, Mavs

Lol I'll step out of this thread and let you guys have your little circle jerk full of smiley faces and quotes.

Yea I tend to agree with you as well, especially at 7'1. Dwight's athleticism is pretty ridiculous though so he's got he potential to be that good. Its just tough though because we really have no one to measure him up against because Shaq and Yao weren't really dominant when Dwight was coming up.

Its tough to say because he's by far the best big man in an era of generally weak big guys. At most he could be third behind Hakeem and Shaq and at worst he'd 6th.

Oh yeah, he's totally mad.

I'm really unimpressed with the Big East this year honestly. They're going off of reputation at this point aside from maybe Syracuse (who I think is totally overrated). I think that conference is in for a big surprise come March. Maybe its because I think Kentucky is gonna kill everyone.

Obviously he tried to foul him... But he wasn't trying to break the guys nose or anything even close to that. These guys know each other, won a gold medal with one another I seriously doubt Wade was trying to hurt Kobe.

They need to get rid of props ASAP. I'm also with the TNT guys about putting a mil on the line. That'll get everyone to be in it.

Lol dude I don't think Wade was trying to hurt Kobe at all relax. It was definitely an accident. Also, did you read the other quotes where he praised Kobe non-stop after the game calling him one of the greatest ever? That's like if I made a thread about Shane Battier when Wade hurt the shoulder in 07. And lets be real, that quote about KD is most likely true considering the way he scores in these things.

Funny when LBJ matched up with Kobe I told my boy that Wade should be the one guarding Kobe because of how well he usually plays him. Turned out Wade did a solid job on him down the stretch.

LeBron down the stretch was insane. He was pretty much the force that brought the East back into it. Even with what happened at the end I'm happy with the game. LeBron played amazing and Wade had a triple double. If the East had legit reserves they probably would've won.

I never said Wade was close to Jordan? But the SG units as a whole aren't as far apart as we're making them out to be because Wade >> Drexler.
